I do wonder what it is that dads object to. Luckily my dh is far from objecting even though I'm sure it has caused him a little inconvenience at some point. I think he likes the intimacy with the kids.
I can't imagine missing those lovely moments when your kid stirs from sleep [age 2] and whispers to you "I used to eat bees." ;-)@sharim09 you are not alone. 85% of children [under a certain age ... sorry I can't remember which age it was when I read this some time back] will sleep with their parents part of the night.
So many moments like that at bedtime or when waking that I'd have missed.
My arms LOVE to wrap around something small and warm at night :-) My husband is about 6'3" and not wrappable. :-)
